I was staying with her at Craig- ellachie, She asked you to come up, and you didn’t answer for three whole days—and then you didn’t write to me, only to Aunt Grace.” “What did I say?” “You said you might be able to come later on, And then you didn’t write again till two weeks ago, and | you said you might be able to get | off on the seventh if Aunt Grace could have you, and you would take a steamer up the coast, And then— and then—you never came.” “That was the last you heard?” “Yes, Don’t. you remember any- thing about it?” “No.” “You said you remembered—bits.” He shook his head impatiently. “I don’t remember writing to you at all. The things I remember—” He broke off. Vividly before his mind there appeared the things that he remembered—a decanter and two glasses; a syphon with the light striking through it; Elmer Van Berg lifting his glass; the bubbles rising in it—tiny bubbles racing up- wards to the brim. That was one | /Isilver route. ECONOMIC HIGHLIGHTS | Happenings That Affect the Dinner Pails, Dividend Checks and Tax Bills of Every Individual; National and International Problems Are Inseparable “Not another winter like the last?” That was Mr. Rocsevelt’s pledge when he came %o office. The N. R. A., the N. 1. R. A., the A. A. A., and the rest, to give ‘them the initials by which they are now usually known, were brought into being for that pur- pose. The President himself has said that they all represent emer- gency, as distinct from long-view measures, and the theory is that ‘they will be discarded when emer- gency passes. The N. R. A. has done some ex- cellent things, and it has made good headway. But it hasn’t done all that was hoped. Men have been put back to work—but not nearly so many as was anticipated. ' Wages have been upped in most industries—but ‘it’s obvious that many units within those indus- tries aren’t going to be able to pay them unless credit strings are loosened. The problem is not only to make further gains against de- ‘| pression, but to hold unimpaired the gains that have already been made. The way the wind is blowing is indicated by the latest Presi- dential announcement — he is planning a great federal non- profit corporation to buy essen- tial supplies and distribute them to the needy during the winter. It has been the hope that direct relief of this sort would not be necessary, but as matters have de- veloped it appears nécessary if the bitter experience of last winter is to be avoided. ' That’s why inflation talk has bobbed into the headlines again. Many observers, including some who have qualified as experts, be-' lieve that if the recovery drive is to be continued on present lines, inflation is unavoidable. Senator Thomas, Senate Number 1 in- flationist, has been threatening a ‘march of 100,000 men on Wash- A ington unless the printing presses jin the Treasury building begin humming. Senator Pittman of Nevada, whose principal mission in life is to get benefits for silver, wants inflation through. the free Farm groups have been hot on the trail of Secretary’ Wallace, because he said that in- ‘The air was dark between) The sweat came out on his fore- | ‘lation wouldn't be a farmers’ and stared at him through “I was told.I'd been rescued from the Alice Arden—found on a ledge on the cliffs after she broke up, and taken to the Elston cottage hospital.

What was there to’ startle her in that? He went on speaking. “There wasn’t anything about that in the papers—tI read them all this morning, But the tray and the glasses must: have been. there.” A-light nervous shudder passed over Caroline. “The papers?” she said. He nodded. “T read them all. The tray and the glasses must have been there when they found Elmer.” ' “Jim! What are you saying?” He sald, “I wonder if they've got my finger-prints.” Caroline flung herself towards him and caught his hand. “Jim—I'm frightened. What are You saying?” “Pm telling you what you wanted }todknow, That’s.one of the bits: I remenibér — drinking with Elmer Van Berg the night he was shot.

Germany, however, is Aus- tria’s largest single client. Austria, Hungary and Yugo- slavia on their own initiative re- cently made agscements among {themselves for freer exchange of wood and wheat. Wood is one of Austria’s principal exports and the French are preparing lenient customs duties on Austrian timber. i Mussolini, on his part, is report- ed to have offered Chancellor | Dolifuss, who is fighting to keep Austria free from political en- jtanglements, use of the Italian ‘port of Trieste, which belonged to the pre-war Hapsburg empire.
